Bull III

Roy Lichtenstein

Lithograph

National Gallery of Art

Roy Lichtenstein turns the classic image of the bull into a sleek, graphic construction of hard edges, vivid primary colors, and patterned surfaces. Rather than chasing realism, he breaks the animal into interlocking planes that feel both comic-book crisp and almost architectural, a signature move in his Pop Art vocabulary. The result is playful and assertive at once, making it a bold contemporary accent for a modern interior. It’s a striking example of how Lichtenstein transformed familiar imagery into something coolly abstract and instantly recognizable.
